Anthuriums are the tropical royalty of the plant world, known for their stunning foliage and diverse personalities! Native to rainforests, they love hanging out on tree branches, from the humid lowlands to the misty high-elevation cloud forests. These plants come in two main styles: the waxy-leaved varieties from the lower, damp areas and the velvety-leaved ones from the moisture-loving cloud forests. Some, can be a bit high-maintenance, while others are more laid-back.
They love bright, indirect light, well-aerated soil (or moss), and consistent watering (let the top inch of soil dry out between). They also thrive in high humidity and appreciate regular feedings to keep them happy.
